I've used it to play PS1 games, but unless you have the og ps3 with special hardware to emulate ps2 games, it's a console for ps3 but with weaker multi-plats.

>>14645055

Still got mine. Glad they finally cracked the super slim–my B/C original died an ignoble death one year

The PS4 and XBONE still don't have 5 games I want to play, so that leaves me more or less in gen 7

If you haven't played it, give Valkyria Chronicles a try. Gameplay-wise its an interesting combo of TPS and Tactics RPGS. Storywise, a fantasy WW2 with waifus

you might also enjoy LittleBigPlanet 1&2 (haven't played 3 so I won't vouch for it) and the R&C Future games

Where do you guys get your HAN packages? I know about psndl and ps3iso but that's it.

>>14645055

Definitely play NieR, Demons Souls', and Drakengard 3. There are other fantastic exclusives but those sold the system for me.

>Mfw had a PS3 with CFW

>HDD breaks

>Too lazy to buy a new one

I do miss it, though, one of the best consoles I had.

>>14645124

>Glad they finally cracked the super slim

Explain yourself, how? It is as convenient as the slim cfw?

>>14645154

I used to have a really fucking nice page to download games but I lost it with all my bookmarks.

ex troopers is one of the best third person shooters around

What model and roughly how much would you pay for a ps3?

I'm aware of issues that might need fixing like repasting the cpu or it'll fucking die, and needing to get a new hard drive.

Mine was stolen months ago and frankly I'm getting annoyed at the shelf of "Games I can't play because sony are shitheads and the PS4 has no backwards compatibility even though it should since it's more than capable of software emulation of ps1 games, and probably ps2 games, and at the very least should be able to run some ps3 games

>>14647061

early model slims which aren't in urgent need of thermal paste reapplication, can be cfw'd, and hdd size doesn't really matter as it's easy to upgrade. cech-2500 or older (has light up power/eject buttons)

>>14647061

>>14647131

>not getting the launch 60gb model with PS2 backwards compatibility

Shame. Sure it sounds like a jet engine when in use but it's probably the best model of PS3.

>>14647265

I have a ps2 for ps2 and ps1, I don't need a ps3 which emulates both poorly.

>>14647276

>which emulates both poorly.

It's got a PS2 slim in the bottom. How does it emulate poorly?

>>14647284

it doesn't have a ps2 slim in it, it has the ps2 hardware on board and still doesn't provide ideal results. I have a PS2 which does and looks great on my CRT.

>>14647061

What's the problem with it? I have had mine since 2008 without any problems at all.

i've had mine cfw'd since 2011 and it was heavenly, getting to play the best games on release. The PS4 has nowhere near a robust library likr ps3 and the xbone is basically a 500 dollar halo machine.

>>14647333

Apparently the Thermal paste degrades easy or some shit, and you should replace it if it's like 7 years old

>>14647131

thanks

>>14646082

Don't even bother with MGS4. Watch a "play"through on YouTube if you care about muh story. Itll save you 40 minutes of wrestling with shit controls.

>>14647780

Too many buttons tbh. Just needed play and pause.

>>14645994

You can just put a new hard drive in there and it will format the drive.

>>14647420

Cheap chinese paste does, and that's what Sony gave us with it's made in china consoles. It's not just Sony however, it's everyone unfortunately. It'll affect all PS3's eventually, but the smaller manufacturing process slims will be fine for longer. Fat PS3's not so much and require more immediate care.

>>14647141

OP here (at a different place.) Sly is one of my favorite game series and the main reason I got a pS3 was to play Sly 4 when it came out.

>>14647459

The gameplay is hands down the best thing about MGS4. I have a hard time believing you actually played it because that's the last thing people complain about when shitting on that game.

>>14648064

>The gameplay is hands down the best thing about MGS4. I have a hard time believing you actually played it because that's the last thing people complain about when shitting on that game.

Don't worry. The next thing he's going to say is "but how can you play a movie?".

>>14648039

I know. I meant buy a new hdd. I already took out the hdd. Plus, cfw PS3 are kinda expensive and rare as far as I'm aware.

>>14647265

<not getting the launch 60gb model with PS2 backwards compatibility

please do not do this, it sounds good on paper but they tend to cost more and break easier, there's a good chance any phat ps3 you buy will be broken when you get it

Where are the pirate sites?

>>14648770

Plus, cfw solves the PS2 compatibility.

>>14648770

>but they tend to cost more

Most places I see selling them just mark them as "fat ps3" and price it normally.

>break easier

I'll give you this, same with the original 360s

>phat ps3 you buy will be broken when you get it

Try before you buy and save the reciept. If it's lasted 11 years already I'm sure it'll last more with preventative maintenance.

>>14648053

Pretty much this. I got my Slim with 3.42 in 2012 and used it without issues for years, but I did a full deep clean routine a couple years ago, replacing the shit stock paste with MX-4. Still running smooth.

I recently picked up Armored Core 4 and 4A. 4 is at least better than I remember it being. Also since God of W4r is coming soon, consider grabbing the HD collection and 3 if you haven't played them already. As has already been pointed out, Metal Gear Solid Legacy collection is a great playthrough, as well.

>>14649725

The MGS Legacy collection is perfect really, definitive MGS compilation.

my cfwd ps3 stopped recognising usbs, anyone got this problem and resolved it?

You could look into Uncharted if you like fun, Indiana Jones-esque adventure stories. The shooting segments range from tiresome to frustrating and it's as linear as a game can be, but it makes that up in presentation. The characters are likeable and the story is well-told for the most part. As far as cinematic games go, this is a good one. And, as I've said, it's a fun adventure story. They don't really make these anymore.

The first one is alright, the second one is good. Haven't finished the third one, so far I've found it uninspired.

>>14650745

hmm it was one stupid .txt file I put there when I tried to connect x360 controller to it

>>14648724

>cfw PS3 are kinda expensive and rare

not anymore you fuggen retard unless you mean og ps3s

>>14645055

I bought a used PS3 for 50 bucks, softmodded it and now I have about 120 games on an external HD. It's basically a perfect situation.

I feel for nu/v/ who either plays retroshit for cred, or spend their days wasting after ecelebs on twatter.

>>14651876

I play them because they're fun and I'm still finding new games that I haven't played yet.

>>14650805

Uncharted is a draining game to play. It has its occasional popcorn moments but as a shooter it's not very good, as a platformer it's very simple, and the puzzles while simple, can be quite tedious and most of the time I just want to get them over with. 2 is probably the best one to actually play.

>>14651876

Also some games may be singleplayer only, but also work well with guests beside.

- Asura's Wrath (anime with easy QTE, cool story)

- Beyond Two Souls (closer to anime than to Heavy Rain)

- Catherine (risque love story)

- Nier (the second playthrough is unforgettable)

- Space Invaders Infinity Gene (incredible wireframe art)

- Yakuza: skip 3, try 4 and 5. (intriguing story)

>>14651876

>Do people do this?

You guys are fucking based. High quality posts on such a terrible board are always appreciated.

>>14653471

Have fun, anon. A CFW'd PS3 is really a haven for great multiplayer vs/co-op fun.

One of the reasons is that while Dualshock 3 controllers won't work on a PS4, Dualshock 4 controllers do work on the PS3. You can use them wired or wireless, even.

>>14653510

>A CFW'd PS3 is really a haven for great multiplayer vs/co-op fun.

THat makes me really happy. I have 4 controllers hanging out of my N64 at all times like spaghetti because I have friends over a shitload, and I wanted to explore some new fronts.

>One of the reasons is that while Dualshock 3 controllers won't work on a PS4, Dualshock 4 controllers do work on the PS3. You can use them wired or wireless, even.

Yeah I love my PS4 controller. The PS3 controller was a piece of shit. It's also nice that you can plug in PS2 adapters and use PS2 controllers, which is something I do quite frequently due to their superior build quality, and for playing local games.

>>14652385

Catherine is great.

>>14653550

Oh yeah, that's also true. Back when I got my PS3 I had two DS3s and two DS2s with the USB adapter for 4-player action.

It really sucks that Sony dropped the ball with retrocompatibility on the PS4. Connecting a DS3 makes an error pop up, so it should work but Sony programmed it so that it won't. Hell, some PS4 games which use the Skullgirls input driver can use generic USB gamepads (e.g. MK X, SFV). Sadly the compatibility on PS4 is game-dependent, not system dependent. Same goes for steering wheels. The good old G25 works on PC and PS3 by default, but on PS4 only GT Sport (which is meh) supports it whereas the other racing/rally games do not - they expect you to buy the G29.

PS3 can run PS1 games right out and use old memcards via the USB adapter. Meanwhile on PS4 you get jack shit.

Have fun with co-op action, anon. I heavily recommend giving Tales of Vesperia a shot. Since you have CFW you can play the english translated version, and it's one of the best Tales titles. (The english x360 version lacks a lot of content that was added on PS3).

Aside from Vesperia there's Graces - Story is cookie cutter jrpg friendship stuff but the combat is absolutely outstanding.

>>14654141

>Have fun with co-op action, anon. I heavily recommend giving Tales of Vesperia a shot.

Will do. I grabbed Puyo Puyo Tetris and I'm currently grabbing **Goldeneye Reloaded because me and my friends really liked the Wii game for what it was.*

>Sadly the compatibility on PS4 is game-dependent, not system dependent.

For the short time I owned a PS4 I hated this. Fortunately most of the fighting games on it I played supported my Sega Saturn pad I like to use.

>>14654183

Via an USB adapter of sorts? Or it's a Saturn style pad that comes with USB already?

Most fighters use that driver, but sadly other kinds of MP games (puyo, racing, shooters) do not - so you're stuck with DS4s.

Goldeneye is pretty fun. A minus point compared to the Wii version is that motion controls only work on single player. It does include many new things to compensate, though!

In the Wii version you were able to mix-match GC pads, Wiimotes, Pro Controllers and so on.

>>14654206

>Via an USB adapter of sorts? Or it's a Saturn style pad that comes with USB already?

Adapter for a real controller.

>Goldeneye is pretty fun. A minus point compared to the Wii version is that motion controls only work on single player. It does include many new things to compensate, though!

Glad to hear. I honestly think that game is underappreciated for what it is and I look forward to having fun with it.

I have a ps3 slim model which supposedly can be modded without soldering or whatever the other way is, but I still can't get it working. Unlike the 3ds the internet is full of shit because the ps3 community seems to be pure cancer, are there any good guides on this?

>>14645994

>Explain yourself, how? It is as convenient as the slim cfw?

like this

ALL MODELS

ALL FIRMWARES

FINAL DESTINATION

>>14652385

>- Yakuza: skip 3, try 4 and 5. (intriguing story)

yes and no. 3 is considered the weakest of the series but many would agree that playing in release or storyline order is most satisfying.

Release order : 1, 2 , 3, 4, 5, 0, kiwami1,(remake of 1), 6

story order: 0 ,1/kiwami, 2, 3 ,4, 5 , 6

>>14654693

No one is ever going to pick up 1-2 again now that the remakes are out, go back circlejerking in the yakuza general. And the games are so fucking repetitive that playing them consecutively would kill the fun: it's 2 games tops before you need a months long pause.

>>14645949

Fuck yes, though drakengard 3 absolutely needs the dlc which can be loaded onto a cfw ps3.

Also resonance of fate is great.

>>14655990

>Also resonance of fate is great.

Dropped at the first boss when I realized that acrobatics aren't unlimited and if you drop to zero mana, you're fucked

>>14654141

Just curious, what are some worthwhile racing games on PS3? I have Ridge Racer 7 and Wipeout HD Collection installed, but I'm looking for more. Spare the PC multiplats, unless the PS3 version is superior.

>>14658175

Well, for simulation there's Gran Turismo. Both the 5 and 6 servers are already dead so you can only play offline. Some prefer 5's system but 6 does have a lot more content, even if it's just recycled from GT4. Going from 1.0 to the latest update in GT6 will set you back about 20 gigs worth of disk space, and the PS3 is reaaaaaaaally slow installing these updates.

As for arcade racers, Modnation is fun for multiplayer aside from the aforementioned Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed (debatable which version is best, but each one has a specific bonus character. In PC it's Team Fortress team).

>>14652110

<Eternal Sonata

>The game is centered on the Polish romantic pianist and composer Frédéric Chopin, who died of tuberculosis at the age of 39. The story envisions a fictional world dreamed by Chopin during his last hours that is influenced by Chopin's life and music, and in which he himself is a playable character, among others.

wow, that's a unique concept for a game

>>14658711

Yeah, it is quite unusual. Bamco did a pretty respectable job in the localization - they consulted with the Chopin society in Warsaw for fact-checking (between chapters you get tidbits of Chopin's life stories in a VN-style presentation featuring some static art and of course his songs, played by pianist Stanislav Bunin).

As for the game, think Tales but each character has his/her own turn to act, instead of being fully real-time. It's also pretty goddamn hard - later bosses will knock your teeth in if you don't learn to guard/parry properly.

As for the multiplayer aspect, each party member can be assigned to a different player.

>>14658916

>Bamco did a pretty respectable job in the localization

8-4 you mean. But yeah, Bamco used to be able to squeeze quality out of them.

>>14659558

Well, yeah. 8-4 used to do really solid work. Wild Arms 5 for Xseed and Nier for Squeenix, for example. Guess it depends on the directions the contracting party provides?

They did solid work overall in Tales of Xillia and Abyss as well, but Zesty and especially Berseria are quite lackluster in comparison (latter mainly in optional side content. Pisses me off that they don't pay attention to stuff like optional skits.)

>>14659585

>Guess it depends on the directions the contracting party provides?

Pretty much. Their self proclaimed favorite projects are ones like Baten Kaitos Origins, where they have pretty much no oversight and are allowed to take over every aspect of the localization.

>They did solid work overall in Tales of Xillia and Abyss as well, but Zesty and especially Berseria are quite lackluster in comparison (latter mainly in optional side content. Pisses me off that they don't pay attention to stuff like optional skits.)

Here's the thing: 8-4 only handled Tales out here from Abyss PS2 up through Hearts R. Xillia 2, Zestiria, and Berseria seem to use a different group (X2 lists 8-4 as Special Thanks if memory serves, maybe for borrowing terms and names 8-4 had come up with prior, I don't know). Said new team seems to need some more experience/QC if you ask me. Granted, I'm glad 8-4's off the series after Hearts R (though I suspect part of why that was so badly handled was more than Bamco didn't give enough of a shit to keep 8-4 on a remotely tight leash), but some more care to catch references, or see what the established name for things, if only amongst fans are, would go a long ways. But I figure neither Bamco or 8-4 left behind a "guidebook" of sorts as to how to keep things cohesive (even 8-4 started straying from that with Xillia's new arte names), and that just doublechecking aselia wiki would be "unprofessional" or something.

>>14659624

I'd say you're right on the 'guidebook' thing. Every officially translated Tales game has multiple instances of 'why the fuck did they call this arte like this' cases which set most fans REEEEing around. If Bamco had a written set of 'standards' this kind of shit wouldn't happen. Normally it's not that bad imo, but X2 was pretty retarded though: Time Disintegration made me lol.

Hearts R probably had a budget of two bottles of soda and a half-eaten sandwich - Bamco wasn't really that concentrated on it, but at least we got the game out thanks to that Sony campaign. Now that Enso is available, I'd like to help work on an eventual retranslation - toolsets should be easily adaptable to H:R.

There really is no golden standard, but things have gotten pretty bad (not Wrecking Designs tier bad, but we're getting there) nowadays:

>Xseed

Flip-flopping around, there's stuff like Akiba's Trip masterful disregard of SJW complaints (yay) only to have Akiba's beat controversy fucking everything up.

>NISA

Bugs. Also an atrocious release for Ys VIII that even a first-time fan translator would be ashamed of. Can't forget random censorship!

>8-4

Aforementioned stuff. Guess budget and direction goes a long way. Nier (first one) absolutely blew me away - it's one of the few games I don't bother undubbing.

>Treehouse

How about dem epic memes fam

>Aksys

Sometimes there's a Muramasa which is nice. Then there's Blazblue which is even more of dem epic memes. The fuck…?

>Pqube/Inti

Double Peace was ok as far as I checked, but Valkyrie Drive did have some controversy spin out. Haven't tried any other of their titles so far.

>Crunchyroll

First try out with a Danmemo mobage and they already fucked up. Good riddance.

>>14659680

>I'd like to help work on an eventual retranslation - toolsets should be easily adaptable to H:R.

Good luck with that. At this point there's pretty much no translation groups for Tales left, assuming the Rebirth team isn't still chugging away at their game (which no one will know about since they haven't posted and updates on their altervista site since 2013, and due to mooching off A0t's forums, no one can contact them that way anymore either).

>Muramasa Rebirth

I think part of why that one wound up good is that Ignition was noted as having done a rather bad job with the Wii original before, thus Aksys might have felt compelled to do a lot better, perhaps because if it became the go-to version to play they'd stand to get more money in the long term. Speaking of which, Ignition UTV's another oddball company worth looking into with variable quality.

Anyhow, it's also interesting to note how many of these publishing companies and/or localization teams are based out of the US' libshit-infested west coast. Though 8-4 and Pqube are odd in that the former is based in Japan and and the latter in the UK to my knowledge.

>>14658175

Motorstorm!

>>14659806

Ugh, don't remind me. I'm still royally pissed of at what A0 did after teasing everyone with those streams - at the very least they could release the current work so far. The forums were dead already, it's all that newfangled disagreement now. (I lurked a bit after the A0 shutdown but there was nothing of interest in there).

If Kingcom can be contacted, ToD PS2 could be restarted - he's the one behind the extremely handy toolset, after all.

>>14659872

His site's FAQ page says something about being him and KaioShin being regular lurkers on rhdn's IRC (though who knows how up-to-date that fact is anymore), and I suppose one could always leave a comment on one of his posts on aerie.wingdreams that could get noticed, assuming he still uses it (he hasn't updated anything in a while, and even the last post he said things had been slow due to being busy with A0t's now cancelled work. Harnessing Kajitani's anger towards Bamco could also be useful, but like Kingcom, he's stopped updating his site as well. Maybe anyone involved is feeling burned out by how things went, and of course there's the issue of whether Kingcom's tools even belong to him, or if they were considered property of the (failed) projects he was working on.

>>14659894

Kingcom's the dev behind those tools 100% as far as I know. Some of his tools (for other titles) are on github already, but the ToD ones aren't since I guess they're not fully finished. I heavily doubt he would've given control of the tools to A0.

Kajitani made an April fools post and acknowledged what happened to A0 but that's about it.

Also I forgot there was a wordfilter for that gaming oriented chat client lol

>>14659902

I actually just saw that myself. I'd like to think he doesn't agree with how things were handled, but it's a bit hard to tell given how sarcastic his April Fool's posts generally are. Maybe if he is working on something for Destiny, he wants to keep it on the down-low until he's got something tangible. But that's still making an assumption.

Strikes me that this is part of the issue with so many people having been tied into other group's projects: if one shuts down, they all lose their progress.

>>14659915

It's pretty unstable to work on projects this way. Thankfully Vesperia PS3 didn't get shafted by this, and now with PS3xploit pretty much any console can play it.

>>14659923

Yeah, and it Berseria are still to my knowledge the only finished PS3 translation patches, though I'm pretty sure Berseria's is just a script rip, unless those ruskies that hacked it in touched up the post game script as well. Think I've heard that EX Troopers did have one in the works too, but I'm not sure how much progress has really been made.

Anyhow, I've backed up copies of the patch files for what Tales have been completed, just in case more start going all "shut it down" on what they've managed to finish. A0t deleting their former finished patches because people shouldn't be playing them or something? They didn't go whole hog and DMCA rhdn or pirate sites that hosted prepatched files, and there's still working downloads from archived versions of their site someone had the forethought to make, so I don't even know why they bothered aside from "this is to show we're totally serious this time".

I thought Nights of Azure had been localized? I guess not on PS3.

>>14660589

PS4 only out here. Heard the Vita version was a bad conversion, so that one I can understand not bringing over, but sadly after a few years they've stopped bringing the other versions of PS3/Vita/PS4 multiplats west in favor of regional PS4 exclusivity in most cases.

>>14660745

I softmodded my fat with the december ps3exploit, but v3 supposedly covers the slims as well. A large HD is a must (I just bought a 500gb to mod and gift), or you'll get crazy swapping around with FTP.

>>14660769

Can you use any HDD?

So anyone tried playing a block of games by the year they were released? really always amazes me of the gulf between the launch titles and end of console lifespan games.

>>14658711

The main villain is absolute shit, though.

>>14658916

>It's also pretty goddamn hard

Not really. I'm a casual, and I never had trouble with it. Only Pirate Dulce gave me any real trouble. Damn, I loved that character.

>>14660029

I'm gonna flip shit if they go demanding take downs.

However, they probably have a small amount of working logic in their heads, so it probably won't happen.

I also got mirrors of pretty much every patch just in case they go full SHUT IT DOWN

>>14660773

Pretty much any laptop HDD will work.

>>14660858

Count Waltz in the mountains. Seriously that was pretty tough, and I had Salsa ripping everyone sanic-style, even.

Most bosses are manageable, though. A thing I liked a lot was that you couldn't just mash the attack button to victory in common battles unlike pretty much any other JRPG (even Tales, assuming you use semi-auto).

>>14660769

HAN covers the slims and superslim models, it isn't CFW but it'll be close enough for most people (it can play PS3 backups and PS1/PS2/PSP)

>>14660773

>Can you use any HDD?

It has to be fat32.

>>14660829

>All the games he listed either have pc ports

…without couch coop, since PC doesn't like splitscreen. Happy now retard?

>>14661755

Nah, you can use NTFS. It's just a different work-around. However, less tedious than having to split big files.

If I got a launch PS3 with modern firmware can I still mod it? What kind of benefits would that have over a modded slim PS3. I modded my slim back when this shit was first coming out with one of those dongles. What would it take to get it up to date to play backups of everything?

>>14661990

If you have an old Phat PS3 then yes, it just needs to have a factory firmware that is low enough. The current firmware wouldn't matter.

>>14661755

>>14661965

I think anon meant for the internal, in which case it's irrelevant as the PS3 will format it to its own type.

However, for external drives, FAT32 is easiest but has the issue with split games indeed, whereas NTFS support has been around for some time already.

As for the external drive characteristics, pretty much any USB external will work, but PS3 only has USB2.0 ports, keep that in mind. A laptop drive in an enclosure also works. Lastly, the drives do require energy - small 500/1TB drives can work directly but this also means that the other USB port will be wonky if you connect something such as a steering wheel or a PS2-USB adapter. For this reason I copy 4-player games to the internal disk, just in case I need to use the PS2-USB adapter.

>>14662001

Nicoblog has some stuff, but you'd best have ways to dodge captha and adfly pages. Might also find some stuff on PSNDL. If you're looking for some comprehensive emuparadise-style thing (minus pre-emptively removing DMCA-able games), there isn't really a good one at this point in time. Probably doesn't help matters what with how big PS3 games can get at times either.

Anybody have some custom ps2 classics they'd be willing to share? I've been having problems with getting the param.sfo file in my pkgs when I run PS2Classics GUI.

>>14669806

A lot of PS3 games have torrents it seems like, you can try that too.

One thing nicoblog has is pre-patched isos for fan translations and the like. That's always nice.

>>14670268

Oh, nice! Been looking for some english versions of certain japanese-games i was recommended.

Btw, been owning a PS3 for a long time, finally getting around to playing certain games and holy shit, NiER, what a fucking game. Didn't expect those feels.

>>14670268

Downloading-wise i prefer when they put it on google-docs, Megafile and Filecrypt stinks with their download-limits.

is it like that everytime or is Zone of Enders jap dub with really big delay? I mean the nicoblog version?

>>14670499

only use the HD version for zone of the enders 2. for the first one use the ps2 emulator.

>>14670516

why? also the 2 comes out in September on PC

>>14670525

because it's the second worst HD remaster ever

Anyone have a torrent for Yakuza 5? The site I normally use is down

>>14670541

even after patch?

if i still want to play stuff online (gg xrd, warhawk, etc.) would i just be better off buying another ps3 so i don't get banned? or is PSNPatch and whatnot enough to prevent that?

>>14670475

you can just download megadownloader and get around it that way. jdownloader2 might work too

>>14670900

nopaystation has it

Thanks anons, just bought a Slim CECH-20XXB on ebay. I've read multiple times that the internal HDD can only be 1TB, some say 1.5TB is the max. What about it?

>>14677107

Some claim certain 2TBs work, but to be safe stick to 1-1.5TB.

Officially, it's 1TB so stick to that.

>>14682711

Grab the Yakuza games: 3, 4 and 5 (digital only).

>>14682711

why is mass effect 3 there

>>14683108

will do

>>14683121

I don't know, never played them and figured i'd download the trilogy. Guess i won't play either of them a lot.

>>14686106

>>14682711

Remove CoD, MGS4, all Ass Defect games, Blacklist, and both NG Sigma games you flaming homosexual.

>>14686189

>CoD and Blacklist

Just downloaded them for offline multiplayer, thought that might be fun

>NG Sigma

Whats bad about them? Never played a single game in the series.

>MGS4

Never played it and will try it. I didn't really ask for a taste critique, just wanted to know if you can recommend good games that are missing. An obvious one is Nier for example, it's just not on NoPayStation for some reason.

>>14686220

>Whats bad about them?

They're mediocre as fuck ports of otherwise good games. Sigma 2 especially is shit with less enemies, reduced violence and slowdown. Play the OG xbox and 360 versions.

>Blacklist

>multiplayer

Kill yourself or play Chaos Theory for actual decent Splinter Cell multiplayer

>MGS4

>Never played it

>play

Congrats, you'll spend more time watching it than playing it.

Cut that shit from your list unless you're a giant fag.

>>14686246

mgs4 is still the best playing MGS game. back you go to your eurojank slavshit.

>>14686246

>They're mediocre as fuck ports of otherwise good games

So NG3 is good?

>Kill yourself or play Chaos Theory

Downloading now

>>14686270

play the ninja gaiden games on xbox and xbox 360 instead. also get ex troopers, daytona usa and afterburner climax.

>>14686246

Isn't blacklist's and CT's multiplayer dead?

>>14686265

>best playing MGS game.

Too bad you barely fucking do the playing part, Kojimacuck.

>>14686270

>So NG3 is good?

Inferior to 1 and 2, even the updated Razors Edge release.

>>14666169

Very. It's dead online though, so if only recommend it if you can find people to play with.

>>14686287

>ex troopers, daytona usa and afterburner climax

Thanks

>Play it on Xbox

Don't have either of them unfortunately

>>14686294

I meant as in split screen, offline

Has anybody tried this yet? I want to be sure before bricking my brothers' PS3

psx-place.com/threads/tutorial-the-great-ps3xploit-3-0-han-all-in-one-guide.16979/

>>14686312

then wait to play them on the xbox, they're redesigned on the PS3 and definitely are not as good. There's also a few odd changes like less gore, the original for sigma is prettier on PS3 but get the best experience on the original xbox/360.

>>14686297

>he never even played mgs4 and is still regurgitating 10 year old memes

I'd kill myself if I was this misinformed and kept trying to peddle narrative.

>I'd kill myself if I was this misinformed and kept trying to peddle narrative.

There's still less gameplay than cutscenes in the end though, and not all of the gameplay is great to begin with.

>>14686559

No, there's more game play than cutscene in MGS4. There's just a lot of cutscenes, which you can skip if you don't care for them.

>>14686583

There's about 5 hr of gameplay and I'm pretty sure there's more than 5hr of cutscenes

>>14686589

great time talking to someone who never played the game

>>14686620

It's on average a 20-22 hour game, you can rush through in less than that. If your estimates are reliable did you just spend 5 hours leaving the game on while doing nothing?

>>14686629

>So let me get this straight, you say that on average it's a 20-22hr game, yet my first playthrough which was pretty fast but by no means stellar is 4-6hr below that, and not only that but you try to infer that I left the console on doing nothing for hr putting the game at a mere 10hr playthrough.

Simpler explanation is that it's a game with 10hr of cutscenes and less gameplay than that, but hey according to you I never played the game so what do I know :^)
